Condition Assessment

Wide range of condition assessment services

Do you want to know the exact state of your current installation? Does it need to be renewed or replaced? Does it comply with current regulations? How reliable is it? Will you be able to get spare parts when needed? Is your earthing up to scratch? Have your capacitors failed? Are your relays coordinated? And so on.

By understanding the condition of your assets, you can improve every aspect of your network performance – and reduce your costs. A condition- rather than time-based maintenance regime improves overall asset performance at lower cost.

We can provide you with an accurate picture of the condition of your system, and also check that you comply with all legal obligations.

Prediction and prioritization

We can carry out a detailed condition assessment and report that will pinpoint any weaknesses in your system. This will allow you to:

• Be proactive in finding and fixing problems before they cause failures or outages
• Identify and prioritize equipment with the highest failure risk
• Predict and plan when your equipment needs active maintenance or replacement
• Reduce or eliminate downtime and potential damage to cable systems
• Prioritize your capital expenditure by identifying cables for treatment, repair or replacement, and justify funding to ensure greater reliability

Our condition assessment will also identify issues that arise because of changes in system requirements.
